The university has changed its approach to drugs and illegal substances in accommodation following a petition and motion from an action group
A top North East university has changed its zero tolerance approach to drugs and illegal substances in student halls.
Under the previous policy, Newcastle University students found to be in first-time possession of narcotics would be evicted from their accommodation.
Now, residents caught in possession of illegal substances will have their eviction suspended on condition that there are no further offences.

The decision to amend the zero tolerance policy was made following a petition and a motion from group Students for Sensible Drug
